College Grad Working 50 Jobs In 50 States In One Year

IndexFor three years after college graduation, Daniel Seddiqui struggled to land a job. So he shifted gears and went after 50, one in each state, for one week apiece.

It’s a tall order, made taller earlier this year when he worked at Universal Orlando as a stilt walker. The Florida theme park was his 33rd stop on the journey that began in August.

Seddiqui has pulled shifts as a border-patrol agent in Arizona, a rodeo announcer in North Dakota and with a maple-syrup maker in Vermont. “It smelled really good,” he said. His goal is to work in a wide range of occupations and absorb the diverse cultures of the United States.

Besides stilts duties, he has been a greeter at the Simpsons Ride at Universal Studios and a “grouper” — as in “How many in your party?” — at the Incredible Hulk roller coaster at Islands of Adventure.

Read all about his adventure!

Why College Seniors Without Jobs Are Better Off Than Most

02 INDEXA much smaller number of the college graduates this year will find jobs. That fact has been over examined in the press along with the fact that the long recession means that those graduates who do find jobs will get them at relatively low wages. Furthermore, those wages will stay low for the next several years while the economy recovers.

What has not received much press is the fate of the young people who are in the 2009 graduating class at U.S. high schools, especially those students who will not go on to college. Unemployment among college graduates is still below 5%. Unemployment among people who have only graduated from high school and have no additional training is over 10%. People who did not graduate from high school at all have greater than a 15% chance to be among the jobless.

Check out why college seniors should feel hopeless.

De-Tagged Does Not Mean Erased

drunk-facebook-header

Though we’ve all heard that there are future employers, spouses, and murderers who are going to look us up on Facebook to stalk our past indiscretions, how many of us can truly say that our Facebooks are rated PG? While I remember myself painstakingly deleting every picture with the slightest reference of alcohol before I entered college, once I arrived at Michigan, it seemed that every person I knew was tagged in some sort of waterfall or beer pong picture. Slowly, I stopped being so anxious about what went up in my albums; a shot glass here, a beer bottle there, etc. Sure, I still de-tagged pictures of myself chugging bottles or double-fisting shots, but it never occurred to me that the mere mention of alcohol in an album would hurt my good name.

temp-image_1_19

As you might have heard, women who would have ordinarily never set foot in a strip club are now taking to the pole in never before seen numbers, as the failing economy makes finding work that doesn’t require degrading yourself to drunken fools more and more difficult. For you guys, that means your otherwise perfect girlfriends may now be having to do some very, um, questionable activities, just to pay her half of the rent. And stripping isn’t the only one. Here are the 10 Sexiest Recession-era Jobs You Don’t Want Your Girlfriend to Have. (more…)

11 Highest Paying Jobs Straight Out of College

47_image-2Money might not be everything, but if you’re a struggling college student there’s a lot of appeal to making sure you’re in the right position to put the days of two-digit bank balances and Ramen noodles behind you as quickly as possible.

Not only do you need to make sure you’re graduating with the right skills to make yourself marketable, you’re also going to need to know which professions are most likely to pay top dollar to get qualified people. If you’re looking to change the world, these professions might not offer exactly what you’re after, but if it’s cold hard cash you want then the following jobs are the ones to aim for.

Here are the 11 highest paying jobs you can get directly out of college!

Is This the Worst Year to Graduate College Ever?

college-graduate-moves-homeAs a recent graduate from a university rated “Most Selective” by US News & World Report, Tyler was understandably disappointed when he landed in a cubicle-drone job that barely pays minimum wage — that is, until he was laid off and ended up substitute teaching for even less.

With a double-major in Spanish and psychology and a strong GPA, he thought for sure he was on the fast track to a career in event planning, a field he’d secured a summer internship in, palling around with the stars of CNBC. But with corporations scaling back their parties and conventions (lest they be associated with seamy AIG-style taxpayer-funded beach junkets), Tyler found himself working in loss-prevention for Brookstone for $10.50 an hour. Then he was laid off. Now he’s substitute teaching for $10 an hour.

Tyler isn’t the only one struggling. Read all about why this might be the worst year to graduate college…ever!

How to Keep Loafing After Graduation

couchpotato

You can try putting it off by switching majors or reducing your semester workload, but it’s inevitable – eventually you’ll collect enough passing grades to graduate. Our society views this sheet of paper as a marvelous accomplishment, but if you’re a slacker like me, it’s a kiss of death.

Why? Because college is a non-stop party with a refreshingly minimal amount of responsibilities. Dorm life, coeds, beer pong, football, 2 am Taco Bell, coeds – these are the best years of your life, my friend (even your parents will tell you that). And that diploma is going to ruin it all by forcing you to grow up and get a “real” job.

At least, that’s what is supposed to happen. In the famous words of Geoffrey the Giraffe, “I don’t want to grow up,” I’m a lazy ass kid. And lucky for all you other lazy kids out there, I’ve managed to pry myself away from my Arrested Development DVDs long enough to help you avoid being an adult for a few more years. Here are some tips that will keep you coasting and out of that suit and tie: (more…)

steroid-header11Will These Steroid-Era Baseball Stars Get Into the Hall of Fame?

Rickey Henderson and Jim Rice were recently elected into the baseball Hall of Fame. But for the third year in a row Mark McGwire failed to gain entry into Cooperstown.

tebow-header1What Position Will Tim Tebow Play In The NFL?

If Tebow had decided to enter the NFL draft this year it is projected he would have gone in the middle of the first round. But at 6-foot-3-inch, 240-pounds most NFL scouts agree that Tim Tebow’s best position as a pro is probably not as quarterback. Some say Tebow is a “Pro Bowl tight end waiting to happen. Others see him as a safety. He could even be a running back.”  If you were an NFL GM where would you stick Tebow in your line-up? Vote below and tell us whether or not removing him from QB duties would be a retarded move.

deflowering-virgin-lead1The 5 Worst Things About Deflowering a Virgin

Virgins. I love ‘em. No diseases, no loose as a goose V-jay, no skank. No nothin. Just pure pleasure. Thus begins Larry Clark’s 1995 film Kids, in which the main character, Telly, is a cherry popping fiend. From this movie to the Virgin Mary to (most recently) Natalie Dylan, virgins have been endlessly idolized throughout history, not only as symbols of purity and innocence, but as things that are also awesome to put your d*ck in. And for some of the reasons outlined by Telly, this idolization makes a bit of sense. Sure, they don’t have diseases, and yeah, their vaginas are tight. But the ‘pleasure’ aspect of that laundry list? Hardly! F*cking virgins is way more headache than its worth and than it has EVER been made out to be. Here are the five worst things about deflowering a virgin.
